H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Labor & Government Operations, to which was referred H.B. No. 2235 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO NON-GENERAL FUNDS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Tax Foundation of Hawaii.
Your Committee finds that the Office of the
Auditor's Review of Special Funds, Revolving Funds, Trust Funds, and Trust
Accounts of the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, Report No. 23-06,
found that certain non-general funds of the Department should be reclassified
or repealed. This measure adopts the
recommendations of the Office of Auditor related to those non-general funds.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Exempting the Boiler and Elevator Special Fund from central services expenses;
(2) Changing the effective date to July 1, 3000, to encourage further discussion; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor & Government Operations that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2235, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2235, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor & Government Operations,
